- 4300 short ton topsides that can process 590 million ft3/d of gas.
- 6100 short ton jacket.
The contract will also cover the design, detailed engineering, procurement, fabrication, transport, installation and pre-commissioning of:

Engineering and project management
Technip's operating center in Houston, Texas, will perform the overall design, detailed engineering and project management. Offshore installation is scheduled for the second half of 2016.
Platform fabrication will be performed in Trinidad using a local fabricator. The flexible pipes will be manufactured at Technip's Flexi France facility in Le Trait, France. Technip’s S-Lay pipelay vessel, the G-1200, will install the rigid pipelines. Additional vessels from Technip's fleet will install the flexibles as well as umbilicals, and provide construction work support.
